California Fact
Acre for acre, the Central Valley of California supports more wintering waterfowl than anywhere else in North America. At peak times, this region hosts 5 to 7 million wintering waterfowl—more than 60 percent of the Pacific Flyway’s ducks and geese. As you would expect, the high ratio of birds to habitat results in some superb waterfowl hunting. This is especially true on private duck clubs in places such as Butte Sink, Suisun Marsh, and the Grasslands. Good public hunting is also available on several intensively managed national wildlife refuges and state wildlife areas in the region, which also support large numbers of wintering waterfowl.
Abundant species: pintails, mallards, wigeon, green-winged teal, Aleutian cackling geese,
white-fronted geese, light geese
Club Fact.
The Tulare Duck Club (original home of my gun) and the Wigeon Duck Club
share almost identical longitude and latitude.
The Tulare guns predate the Wigeon guns by over 1 year.
After receiving and using their 20 gauge DHE's, the members contemplated
ordering long barreled .410's. It seems due to the abundance of game,
it just wasn't enough of a challenge bagging birds with a 20 gauge.
